Folks,
The New York Review of Books has written a review of Wikipedia:The
Missing
Manual which is well worth a read.
That's both one of the best external reviews of Wikipedia I've seen, and a very passionate, stirring call-to-arms for inclusionism.
Heh, knowing his oeuvre somewhat, I could well imagine Nicholson Baker writing a novel titled Autofellatio, just to ensure wikipedia won't ever be able to be without an article of that name...
(If you have the stomach for it, his novel Fermata is pretty graphic. And I don't say that lightly, be forewarned.)
You know, I've really taken a shine to this fellow! :)
